Kährs Nordic Homeworx Honored with ISO 14001 Certification

Cementing their status as an environmentally conscious and ethical company, Nordic has been awarded the ISO 14001 CERTIFICATION

Dubai, U.A.E: 23rd March, 2016

In a move that is set to elevate Nordic Homeworx’s standard in the corporate world, the company has been awarded the ISO 14001 Certification in recognition of their continued efforts for effectively promoting and maintaining environmental sustainability. The certification confirms an organisation’s commitment to the legal requirements as well as other obligations they have signed onto in terms of implementing and nurturing acts of environmental consciousness. As it maps out the framework a company needs to adhere to, it automatically lays out the management system that it must follow as a whole. In an era where climate change and global warming have taken centre-stage as critical issues in the world, this comes as a pleasant achievement.

As such, the Nordic Homerworx’s production method is now one that is intended to have the least negative effect on the environment. Specialising in wooden flooring options in Dubai, the company in an effort to mitigate their business practice has over the years invested a lot of thought in innovations that in turn have enabled a cleaner and greener production process. A critical aspect to consider both internally and externally amongst employees and stakeholders, a conscious resolve in environmental sustainability to reduce the effect of both engineered wood flooring in Dubai as well as solid wood flooring is now in full force.

‘Our business is centred on wooden flooring. This means that we are of course sourcing trees to meet demand which impacts the environment. As a company that in concerned about the current state of the world we live in, after much discussions and deliberations, we felt it would be a good move to take on board the challenge of fitting into the requirements outlined for the purpose of not only obtaining the ISO 14001 Certification, but maintaining those standards over the years as a way of truly contributing towards a more sustainable business practice. It is an incredible honour to receive this certification as it not only shows our stakeholders where our focus lies, but also that everyone can do their own bit if they put their mind to it. Of course, we will continue to improve our methods and think of new ways to maintain this standard whilst keeping the quality of our products high.’ – Managing Director

It will be as relevant today as it will be tomorrow and with Kährs this timelessness is exemplified for we use only the best quality raw materials to craft your interiors.
